Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Daniels in the fold, and a B- for the Broncos.

Start where it matters. The Broncos took Jayden Daniels to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The McCaffrey reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the 12th overall pick they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick91 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
They jumped the gun on Marshawn Kneeland, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick114 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at pick No. 114 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick122 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Luke McCaffrey well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Javon Foster
They paid sticker price for Javon Foster in pick 126, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick177 Rnd6 Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy in the 177th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A conviction pick on Jared Wiley at Round 6, Pick 28 that the board grades a round light. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
